ILLUSTRATIONS OF ORNITHOLOGY. 
OREOTROCHILUS, Jamzsonu, JARDINE. 
WE now give a figure of both sexes of the beautiful Humming 
Bird, the male of which we described at page 67-2 of our last 
volume. Since then we have received specimens of the female” 
and young from Professor Jameson, a notice of which, with other 
Humming Birds from the same regions, will be found in the Orni- 
thology of Quito of the present part. We have also attempted 
to represent with it the beautiful and very remarkable plant 
from which it is found principally to extract its food. Specimens 
of this and several other plants connected with the ornithology 
have been forwarded to us, rendering the collections doubly in- 
teresting, and these will be introduced wherever they in any way 
serve as food or shelter, or otherwise bear upon the subject.
